So i tried the other day my first attempt at running barefooted. Well i tried to do to much at first. I was running a very difficult trail, with lot's of hills. I think i was doing ok until i steped on a thorn. Ouch!! so no my foot hurts and i have to wait to do it the right way when it's heald.

I plan on doing the bike path to start with for now. Man i just want to be that guy.

There are a lot of nice

There are a lot of nice wooded trail areas in Illinois, and plenty of sidewalks! I was born and raised in Waukegan. Bad luck finding that thorn, but in the mean time you can read more about form and such while you heal up. :-D

Good advice, DT!  Read Ken

Good advice, DT! Read Ken Bob's book and Born to Run. Don't be too anxious, and soon, you'll be that guy!
